Responsibilities

Build, test, and review software on a day-to-day basis, working within our frontends, backends, and with the underlying data modeling that underpins them. This means working on a PostgreSQL query one day and on a React component the next, all the while making sure this work is adequately tested.

Do the occasional DevOps and support work. We use AWS as our cloud provider, but we have no dedicated SRE or DevOps team, and so sometimes engineers may have to help with the plumbing.

Occasionally pair-program with and help mentor peers. This means hopping on a Slack or Zoom call with another engineer to collaborate on a particularly thorny piece of code or to talk through different approaches that can be used to solve the problem at hand.

Help plan medium to large sized projects across the stack. The engineering team gives all engineers the opportunity to plan out and execute on large features. As a senior engineer, you'd be responsible for the more time-sensitive, complicated projects.

Seek out clarity in the face of ambiguity. Domain expertise is always hard to come by and benefits from dedicated time and curiosity - we are learning a lot from our partners and this reflects in the work we do, so ask questions.

Communicate clearly, whether in a stand-up meeting, planning meeting, or otherwise. We're a small team working entirely remotely, which requires us to be prompt and clear with both written and spoken communication.
